A great deal has been accomplished for the bene- fit of the people during the past term, but I am con- vinced that the Hepburn government has not reached the pinnacle of its achievement, rather is it in its early stages, and I am satisfied that by continuing to follow sound policies and give honest government we shall carry the people of this province on to the great des- tiny that is their rightful heritage. I ask you for the opportunity to carry on the good work on behalf of the people of Ontario. Our great Hydro enterprise has been saved for the people of Ontario and thousands of citizens who never before enjoyed the benefits of electrical power have been enabled to become Hydro users. Huge sav- ings amounting to $4,797,761.00 have been enjoyed by the people of Ontario due to reductions in Hydro rates, the direct result of the Hydro policy of the present government. The steadily increasing burden of debt inflicted on you by the previous governments has been stopped. We have definitely established the pay-as-you-go pol- icy in Ontario and as a province we are paying our way. We balanced our budget and had a surplus of $9,000,000.00 which has been passed on to the people in reduced taxation. In addition to all this we have reduced the provincial debt by $33,000,000.00. TO THE ELECTORS OF NORTH YORK:â€" Dear Friendsâ€" It has been my responsibility and privilege to re- present you in the Ontario Legislature for the past term and I am again a candidate seeking your endors- ation next Wednesday, October 6th. The three years of the Hepburn administration have been eventful years, and those charged with the responsibility of government have been faced with many momentous and critical problems. We have en- deavoured to deal with these problems in a sane busi- nesslike manner, and I am sure you agree with me that we rejoice to-day because our province has come safely through those troublous and anxious times. We view too with satisfaction our improved financial position, the very substantial reduction in unemployment and the very welcome lessening» of the tax burden. I am grateful to you for the privilege of being a supporter of the Hepburn Government which has so successfully overcome the huge obstacles bequeathed it by the Henry government, its predecessor in office. I am proud to appeal to you as a supporter of the Hep- burn government which has met courageously and fearlessly every challenge hurled at it by the ever increasing problems of the times in which we live. Sincerely yours, Liberal Candidate for North York. PAGE
